The tomahawk morphology reflects the presence of β-lactose which asymmetrically binds to the capping surfaces creating a polar morphology. The crystal lattice energy is dominated by van der Waals interactions (between lactose molecules) with electrostatic interactions contributing the remainder. Predicted total surface energies are in good agreement with those measured at high surface coverage by inverse gas chromatography, albeit their dispersive contributions are found to be higher than those measured. The calculated surface energies of crystal habit surfaces are not found to be significantly different between different crystal surfaces, consistent with αLMH's known homogeneous binding to drug molecules when formulated.

While physical changes like amorphization, recrystallization, polymorphism of the disordered drugs are extensively studied and reported in the literature, the propensities and inter-dependencies of recrystallization and degradation propensities of disordered drugs have seldom received deep attention. Previous investigations from our lab have explored some of these interplays, aiming to develop predictive stability models. As a follow-up, the implication of crystal disorder on the oxidative instability of Olanzapine (OLA) during accelerated storage is investigated in this work. Cryo-milling OLA at varied time intervals generated different extents of crystal disorder. The milled samples were characterized using calorimetry and infrared (IR) spectroscopy to examine the physical state, while their degradation was evaluated using ultra-performance liquid chromatographic methods. An X-ray amorphous OLA sample was generated by melt-cooling, and used as an amorphous reference. The crystallinity of the cryo-milled samples was quantified using a partial least square regression model based on ATR-FTIR spectroscopic data. The cryo-milled samples were exposed to different accelerated stability conditions along with crystalline (unmilled) and quench cooled (amorphous) samples, serving as controls. At periodic intervals, samples were removed from the stability storage, and analyzed using ATR-FTIR and UPLC methods to quantify the crystallinity- and degradation extents. A positive relation was witnessed between the initial degree of crystallinity and degradation kinetics of the disordered OLA samples during stability storage indicating a strong dependency of degradation on the disorder contents for such disordered solids. The results obtained in this study can potentially explain consequences of inter-batch variations of drugs during stability storage, in addition to enabling de-risking strategies towards eliminating solid drug instabilities in product development.</p>","PeriodicalId":16741,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pharmaceutical sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142569091","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Typically, optimal dissolution performance from a polyvinylpyrrolidone vinyl acetate (PVPVA) based ASD is observed at relatively low drug loading limit. Above a certain drug load, termed limit of congruency (LoC), the release from ASDs significantly decreases. So far, the majority of the dissolution behavior has been tested in conditions where the drug primarily exists in unionized form. In this work, the impact of pH of the dissolution environment on the release performance of ASDs of an ionizable drug was studied. Atazanavir (ATZ), a weakly basic drug with a pK<sub>a</sub> of 4.5 was used as a model compound and PVPVA was used as a non-ionizable matrix polymer. Dissolution rate was measured using Wood's apparatus which normalizes the surface area of the dissolving tablet. The pH of the dissolution media was varied between 1 and 6.8, to cover a range where ATZ exists as >99 % ionized or unionized species. At pH 6.8, near complete release was observed only when the drug load was ≤ 6 %. Unlike typically observed drastic decline in release behavior for PVPVA based ASDs above LoC, ATZ ASDs underwent gradual decline in dissolution behavior when the DL was increased to 8 %. This was attributed to potential formation of an ATZ-PVPVA associated phase with dissolution rate slower than neat PVPVA. However, the 10 % DL ASD showed negligible ATZ release. On another extreme (pH 1) where ATZ is ∼100 % ionized, the dissolution rate of ATZ was faster than that of PVPVA. ASD dissolution rate was found to be slower than that of the neat drug but faster than PVPVA and interestingly, did not change with DL. This can be attributed to formation of an ionized ATZ-PVPVA phase which controls the dissolution rate of the ASD. At pH 3, where the drug is ∼97 % ionized, near complete release was observed for drug loads ≤ 8 %. To observe significant increase in drug loading with near complete release, >98 % ionization of ATZ was required. At pH 2 where ATZ is ∼99.7 % ionized, near complete release was observed for drug loads up to 30 %. Furthermore, the deterioration in dissolution performance with an increase in drug load continued to be gradual at pH 2. The enhancement in dissolution performance did not correlate with solubility enhancement of ATZ due to ionization. We theorize that the enhancement in the dissolution performance due to ionization is the result of formation of an ionized ATZ-PVPVA phase which increases the hydrophilicity and the miscibility of the ASD. This can help resist water induced phase separation during ASD dissolution and therefore, result in continuous, and congruent dissolution of the drug and polymer.</p>","PeriodicalId":16741,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pharmaceutical sciences","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142502575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
